Hi I maintain php within OpenSolaris and Web Stack PHP for Solaris 10. We compile this open source application with Sun Studio 12 Update 1 compiler.
While measuring performance on SPARC, I noticed that there are performance to gain (around 10%) by using -xtarget=ultra2 rather than the current -xtarget=v8 that we use right now. I am wondering, if you have any insights and any caveats to be aware of on enabling such option for Web Stack PHP (which is unbundled and available for download version from Sun.com/webstack) thanks - Sriram -- This message posted from opensolaris.org
